Love has forsaken me
Called out to you from your antiquity
But forsaken me
Do I lack the harmony?
The discipline, the grace, the duty?
We both ashamed of how we deserted
And the fools we are
Look away look away you rolling river
Look at the stars
You'd think the path be pretty
And it is when I look ahead
But turn around look at the ground, look at the dead
Here from the heavens I see you standing where
I wanna be but have never dared
And I know you would't trade places with me
Surrounded by his sensational offering for your singular loyalty
Loyalty loyalty
Give me your dirty knee
Let me hug it, let me kiss it
Let me take you back and throw away the key
Give me an evening, give me a party
Give me a little time on our hands
Give me music, give me Count Basie at The Sands
Sing to the bartender that song we like
My torch is staked in vigil, in wait
All for this night
She's in your apartment where she takes up all your time
That philosophy that's evolving in you
That right now's calling to you
Let it be thine
